Derby Originals Reflective Safety No Hardware Winter Turnout Blanket for Foals & Mini Horses – 1200D Waterproof Ripstop, 150g Insulation, 2-Year Warranty

Overview

Meet a modern solution for foal comfort and safety: the Derby Originals Reflective Safety Winter Blanket. Built to be hardware-free, this turnout blanket focuses on a snug, adjustable fit, high visibility, and durable protection against the elements. The combination of rugged 1200D ripstop nylon and thoughtful design aims to keep your foal warm, dry, and comfortable during chilly days and nights.

Designed with safety in mind, the blanket uses elastic, adjustable chest and belly straps coupled with adjustable neck straps, all featuring reflective tape for enhanced visibility. The oversized tail cover provides extra protection from wind and snow, and the absence of metal hardware reduces the risk of snagging or tangling—an important consideration for active foals in open spaces or pastures.

Materials and Insulation

This Derby Originals blanket combines a tough 1200D waterproof ripstop exterior with a breathable triple-layer 210T lining. It includes 150 grams of PolyFil insulation, crafted to help maintain warmth without overheating in temperatures as low as 10° F. The outer fabrics are designed to withstand indoor and outdoor use, from brisk mornings to damp, windy afternoons.

Fit, Sizing, and Practical Details

Key design elements are meant to grow with your foal: adjustable straps with elasticity on the chest and belly, allowing a flexible fit that can accommodate growth and different body shapes. The neck opening uses adjust-to-fit neck straps for a better seal around the neck. The product is available in three sizes to fit most Small, Medium, and Large foals, with special sizing guidance for minis to ensure a proper fit and comfort. A true hardware-free solution means fewer items to manage during busy routines.

Safety, Visibility, and Warranty

Reflective tape adorns all four chest and belly straps to maximize visibility in low light or pasture settings. The blanket is designed to be worn with confidence outdoors while maintaining a comfortable feel against the coat. Derby Originals backs this product with a two-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects, underscoring durability and reliability for regular use.
